Chemistry

QuestionAnswer
what is the formula for calculating the number of electrons in a shell? 2xn^2 n= number of the shell
whats the difference between polar and non polar covalent bonds? nonpolar covalent bonds share electrons and polar shares unequally
What is the easiest way to remember about polarisability? the larger the electron cloud = larger polarity = stronger dispersion force
What does oxidation do Loss of electrons, gain of oxygen
what does reduction do gain of electrons, loss of oxygen
What does OILRIG stand for? Oxidation is loss of electrons. Reduction is gain of electrons.s
What does redox stand for? oxidation-reduction reaction

what is the ion charge for halogens? -1
If a molecule has 3 bonds and zero lone pairs, what is its geometry? trig planar
In a hydrogen bond, which end is electropositive and which is electronegative? hydrogen is electropositive; the other is always negative
What net charge does any ionic compound have? zero; both cations and anions must cancel out
in an O-H bond, which end is negative and which is positive? O is partially negative charge; H is partially positive charge.
define electronegative an atom with a tendency to attract/ want electrons
what's the difference between covalent and ionic bonds? covalent shares electrons between atoms, and ionic transfers electrons to one atom
how do you know the number of protons atomic number
formula for neutrons mass - atomic number
formula for electrons (neutral) number of protons
formula for electrons ( ion) protons +/- charge
Formula for mass number protons + neutrons = mass number
What bond does 2 metals create? metallic bond
Define cathode electrode where reduction occurs
What is a type 1 binary compound? has metal present that forms only 1 cation

Which element is used as the base for amu? carbon 12
What is the most electronegative element and its value fluorine 4.0
What is the least electronegative element and its value cesium 0.7
define alkanes Hydrocarbons that contain only single bonds of only carbon and hydrogen, saturated
Define alkenes hydrocarbons that contain carbon-carbon double bonds, unsaturated
Define alkynes unsaturated hydrocarbons that contain a triple bond; few occur in nature because they are very reactive
What is the percentage yield formula? (Actual yield ÷ Theoretical yield) × 100.
What is a covalent bond? A chemical bond formed when two or more atoms share electrons.
What charge does each part of an atom have? Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral
What is the ion charge for noble gases? 0 or neutral; has a full octet
What is hydrogen bonding? the intermolecular force in which a hydrogen atom that is bonded to a highly electronegative atom is attracted to an unshared pair of electrons of an electronegative atom in a nearby molecule
define positive charge of an atom The element receives less of the electrons' time
what type of bond is a hydrogen bond? intermolecular, dipole-dipole
define anode positively charged electrode where oxidation occurs
if the atomic bond is between either 2 non-metals or a metalloid and a non-metal, what type of bond is it? covalent bond
if an atom loses an electron, what is it and what is its charge? a cation and positive charge
define ionic compound a compound composed of cations and anions
what is the definition of Arrhenius acid any species of acid that increases the concentration of H+ (hydrogen ion) in an aqueous solution
What bond does 1 metal and 1 nonmetal create? an ionic bond
What happens with a redox reaction? Electron transfer reactions, oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously
define polyatomic ions A charged group (2 or more) of covalently bonded atoms
define binary compounds compounds containing only two elements
When does reduction occur? When positively charged ions gain electrons at the negative electrode
When does oxidation occur? When negatively charged ions lose electrons at the positive electrode
What does VSEPR theory stand for? Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory
What does VSEPR theory state about electron sets around an atom? Repulsion between the sets of valence-level electrons causes them to be oriented as far apart as possible.
what type of bond happens between a metal and non-metal? an ionic bond
define Arrhenius base a substance that increases the concentration of hydroxide ions, OH-, in aqueous solution
what type of bond holds DNA together? hydrogen bonds
define molecular compound a molecule composed of 2 elements
define negative charge of an atom electron spends more time around that element
is Na+Cl- a covalent or ionic bond ionic bond
What ion charge do alkali metals and alkaline earth metals have respectively metals +1 earth metals +2
If an atom gains an electron, what is it and what is its charge An anion and its charge is negative
What bond do 2 nonmetals make? covalent bond
if a compound has 2 oxygen, how many oxygen are there in 3 molecules 6 oxygen molecules
whats the easiest way to remember how many valence electrons an atom has The column the atom resides in tells you how many valence electrons are available
what is the difference between inter and intra molecular forces? intra is the forces that exist between bonded atoms of a compound, and inter is that either attracts or repels atoms outside of the compound
Describe what happens to electrons in pure covalent bonds, covalent bonds, and ionic bonds In pure covalent bonds, the electrons are shared evenly; in covalent bonds, the more electronegative atom will attract the electron more, and ionic completely takes the electron from the atom
If a molecule has 3 bonds and 1 lone pair, what's its geometry trig pyramid
Regarding quantum numbers, what does n represent the principal quantum number that states the distance of an electron from the nucleus
what does the quantum number m^s mean? it's the spin
what is the difference in electronegativity of an ionic bond 2 or more
how do you easily identify metallic bonds? Low difference in electronegativity, and both elements are reasonably low electronegativities
What does the quantum number l mean? shape of the orbital
What is the difference in electronegativity in a polar covalent bond? 0.5 to 2
If a molecule has 4 bonds and zero lone pairs, what is its geometry? tetrahedral
In what order do shells fill? 1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 4f
What does the quantum number ml mean? the magnetism
If a molecule has 2 bonds and 2 lone pairs, what is its geometry bent
What is the difference in electronegativity for a nonpolar covalent bond? less than 0.5
What is the difference between binary and polyatomic ions binary has at least 1 metal;l polyatomic is 2 non-metals
what does the quantum number l mean? shape of orbital
regarding solubility and intermolecular forces,s what happens if you increase temperature? increased temperature is increased solubility and decreased intermolecular forces
